Mountain glamping - the Kootenay

96%
(12)
Bell tent · Sleeps 4
Peaceful glamping in the Canadian Rockies, close to Radium Hot Springs & Kootenay National Park! Please note, this is a shared site with 3 glamping tents. This 5m canvas bell tent on a spacious wooden deck comfortably sleeps 4 in real beds with mattresses (you bring your own bedding). Kick back in the iconic Adirondack deck chairs or join your group at one of the 2 fire pits (firewood included) to watch the gorgeous sunsets or star gaze to your heart's content. No light pollution here.The tent is one of three located on a shared 1-acre site within 600+ private acres.The site is easily accessible from the highway but is somewhat remote, so be prepared to drive approx. 4 kilometres on gravel. A high-clearance vehicle is recommended. Limited parking is available adjacent to the site; more parking is located 300m away but gear drop-off is available adjacent to the site. We provide a gear buggy for transporting your gear down to the tent site (approx. 50m from parking.) We provide the tents, beds, mattresses, Adirondack chairs, folding chairs, picnic tables, kitchen shelter with prep counters (you bring pots, plates, utensils etc), sink, and running non-potable water for washing up, a handwash sink with running non-potable water, 2x bear storage lockers, 3x camp stoves (you bring propane), a shared BBQ (you bring propane), 2x firepits, firewood, 2x outhouses, TP, outdoor cold-ish shower. We suggest you bring the following: Bedding • WARM Sleeping bag/bedding - we are in the mountains and it gets cold at night, even in the summer (it can get down to 10 degrees C or 50 F, or less) • Pillow Cooking/Eating: • Note: we have a limited number of kitchen cooking/eating supplies which you are welcome to use but which are available on a first come/first served basis • Cooler for food storage • Propane for cooking (1lb bottles) • Drinking water/water purification • Pots & pans • Cooking utensils • Can opener, bottle opener, corkscrew • Plates, bowls, mugs • Eating utensils • Aluminum foil • Biodegradable dish soap • Dish towel/dish cloth • Coffee pot • Garbage bags (pack it out) Clothing & Personal items, including: • Headlamp/flashlight/ lantern • Leatherman/ pocketknife • Hiking poles • Backpack • Bear spray – highly recommended if you are hiking in the area Enjoy miles of private trails, see signs of deer, elk, and bear, listen to the birds. Your proximity to the Columbia Wetlands and Kootenay National Park means you are in Mother Nature’s backyard – deer and elk sightings are common, and black bears frequent the property although they are quite shy and avoid humans as much as possible. The Wetlands are home to over 300 species of birds – feast your eyes on eagles, turkey vultures, pileated woodpeckers and listen to the swoop of nighthawks at sunset. Hike on our private trails which meander through shady glades, strawberry fields, or open benches with views of the valley for hundreds of kilometres in each direction.

Mountain glamping - the Kootenay
The most beautiful place i've stayed at. The morning view was great. The tents were awesome, kept the heat from the morning and with our sleeping bags it was more than sufficient. We had kids with us so was afraid it would be cold at night, but there was no issue. 5/5. The host also comes to give us a quick info, and suggestions on area to visit if we're in town etc.

Rockies Glamping - the Brisco tent
We loved our stay at the Brisco tent. Super cozy and clean glamping site with stunning views and friendly and attentive hosts. Listing photos are accurate to what it was like IRL. We enjoyed meeting the other guests at the site as well. Perhaps my favorite part was the outdoor toilet!!

Beautiful view
Mountain glamping - the Kootenay
A beautiful space in the middle of the mountains! The tents were incredibly clean and comfortable. Appreciated the sheets on the beds as I forgot some!! They are not joking about needing clearance underneath the vehicle though as the last part of the road was quite off roady!

This is an amazing space, and was a truly special experience being able to stay. Can't say enough. The yurts were spacious, and the camp was fully equipped to ensure comfort. The fire pits and views were particularly perfect.

Mountain glamping - the Kootenay
*Booked all three sites - Kootenay, Brisco, Bugaboo* Incredible. The site, the views, the amenities, everything was perfect. The tents were beautifully set up with the mountain views and sky in mind. The outhouses were clean and a short walk from the tents. The cooking shelter was well-equipped. It is evident that the hosts have put a lot of thought into everything, from the ease of finding the property to providing the luxuries I have not yet seen in other glamping sites. It was so easy to find everything we needed and was very intuitive. And to top it off, Katherine was very responsive and lovely to be in touch with. I really can't say enough good things about my experience. It is such a rare treat to enjoy the brilliance of the night sky without all the light pollution and noise. My group is already talking about planning another trip out. Truly looking forward to the next time we can visit. Until then, we have some of the best memories to sustain us.

Mountain glamping - the Kootenay
Had a great weekend with my kids and their friends. The tents were very comfortable with lots of space for everyone’s gear. The views from the tents and the lower fire pit are spectacular. The cooking shelter is huge and great for rainy days. I would like to go back again sans kiddos so I can enjoy sitting on the deck and reading a book! It’s a very peaceful well appointed setting.

Rockies Glamping - the Bugaboo
This is a fantastic spot….truly a hidden gem. The tents sit on a cleared area overlooking the East Kootenay region. The views are breathtaking! The tents are impeccably set up. There’s a nice kitchen area and lots of seating. There are also a few trails worth checking out. We went to the sunset point which was only 15’ away and it provided a great unobstructed view of the area. The owners are great….thank you Katherine for helping us prepare for a great visit. We hope we will come back in the not too distant future!

Great camping option near Radium Hot Springs and Kootenay National park. Our tent was cozy, directions and information from the hosts was great, aswell as their communication and friendliness. The basecamp has outhouses, shower, a gear buggy to bring your gear to the tent. Pets are allowed, so our cat George had a fun time. Beautiful views to wake up to!

This glamping backcountry site is great. We had all the material we needed, tents are cozy. There is little to no light pollution. The night sky was clear of clouds and the stars were incredibles!
